How Long Does Bush Spend On His Low Priorities?

Associated Press writer Tom Raum knows a thing or two about "high priorities."

Every few days, Associated Press writer Tom Raum makes it a "high priority" to take five minutes to trim the crinkly, grey hairs which spurt out of his crusty ears.

Every few days, Associated Press writer Tom Raum makes it a "high priority" to take five minutes to check and make sure that he rewound his stack of pornographic video tapes before returning them to the video store.

Every few days, Associated Press writer Tom Raum makes it a "high priority" to spend five minutes to practice bending and flexing so he can one day master the art of sucking his own cock.

Every few days, Associated Press writer Tom Raum makes it a "high priority" to spend five minutes to play with the special child who is obviously responsible for writing the bullshit articles that he passes off as journalism and that his editors pass off on and allow to be published.

In an "article" entitled "Bush's Stake is Huge in Iraqi Elections", Associated Press writer Tom Raum shows and proves that President George "Dubya" Bush is doing all he can to monitor the situation in Iraq, one day after 37 US troops lost their lives (that's 37, NYT & MSM, not 31 and 6; I guess you fuckers do the worst you can so that you can be assured of a good embedment slot in the next "merry war").

Associated Press writer Tom Raum "informs" us: "Bush has given the vote such a high priority that he has been on the phone every few days with either interim Iraqi Prime Minister Ayad Allawi or Iraqi interim President Ghazi al-Yawer, including a five-minute call to al-Yawer on Thursday morning."

Below the "article" we learn that "Tom Raum has covered national and international affairs for The Associated Press since 1973." I can't say for sure whether I've read your work before, Associated Press writer Tom Raum, but I think that sentence of yours I just quoted pretty much reeks for itself.

Rather than taking five minutes to send a nasty e-mail to Associated Press writer Tom Raum, I decided to wait until he makes it a "high priority" to google his name, so he can come here and see what I think of his version of journalism.
